"More than a tenth of the land mass of the UK comprises urban fringe. This book examines the challenges that planning faces in this no-man's land. It presents problems and solutions, and builds a vision for the urban fringe that is concerned with maximising its potential and with bridging the physical and cultural rift between town and country."@en
""This book challenges the wisdom of over-designing landscapes, arguing that the fringe is an integral and inevitable part of the urban system and a product of largely organic processes. It investigates the way in which landscapes are made through urban containment, alongside the departure from a purely land-use planning model, and the future role of spatial planning at the edge. Planning on the Edge will be of interest not only to students of various disciplines, including geography and planning, and researchers, but also to policy makers and planning practitioners."--Jacket."
"More than a tenth of the land mass of the UK comprises 'urban fringe': the countryside around towns that has been called 'planning's last frontier'. One of the key challenges facing spatial planners is the land-use management of this area, regarded by many as fit only for locating sewage works, essential service functions and other un-neighbourly uses. However, to others it is a dynamic area where a range of urban and rural uses collide. "Planning on the Edge" fills an important gap in the literature, examining in detail the challenges that planning faces in this no-man's land. It presents both problems and solutions, and builds a vision for the urban fringe that is concerned with maximising its potential and with bridging the physical and cultural rift between town and country. Its findings are presented in three sections: the urban fringe and the principles underpinning its management; sectoral challenges faced at the urban fringe (including commerce, energy, recreation, farming, and housing); managing the urban fringe more effectively in the future.; Students, professionals and researchers alike will benefit from the book's structured approach, while the global and transferable nature of the principles and ideas underpinning the study will appeal to an international audience."@en
